Location

On a piece of farmland halfway between Dongen and Tilburg.

Participants

Plans

I (CO2) am planning to go there tomorrow afternoon. It is quite nearby my current location. And I can borrow my mother's car and GPS device, so all will be great.

Expedition

Most of the way there I knew, only the last part was unknown. It was a tiny muddy road going to nowhere, splitting off from a large road. I actually had to turn 'round a bit past the sideroad, so I could go into the sideroad when it was at my right side. After a bit of walking around with my not-so-good GPS device (it's meant for car navigation so it doesn't like small distance movements) I found the exact spot. It was in the middle of a bit of farmland. I wondered if I was allowed to go on there but there wasn't anybody there so I decided what the hell. Right at the hashpoint was this huuuge puddle, and I was mad enough to try and get closer to the hashpoint. That gave me wet socks. But I think I got within 5 meters of the spot. I hung up a marker on the nearest tree and after taking a few more pictures I decided to leave.
